Step 5:
To remove a channel’s level, you can either use the command [At] [Enter], or you can
use [Sneak] [Enter]. If you have not recorded any lighting looks yet, [At] [Enter]
removes the manual value and sets to out. This will provide a manual 0 for the
channel. If you store from this state, you will be storing a move to zero in the cue or
submaster you stored. [Sneak] [Enter] removes the manual level and sets to the
background state. If there is no cue or submaster in the background, the level will be
set to its home value, resulting in a null state.
•
[1] [0] [At] [Enter] - sets the level of channel 10 to 0%.
•
[Sneak] [Enter] - fades out all manual levels.
•
[5] [Sneak] [Enter] - fades out the manual level for channel 5.
•
[1] [Thru] [1] [0] [At] [Enter] - sets the levels for channels 1 through 10 to 0%.
•
[2] [0] [Thru] [2] [5] [Sneak] [Enter] - fades out the levels for channels 20 through
25.
Recording a Lighting Look
Submasters and cues are two ways that you can record looks to be able to recall them. This quick
start will only cover recording submasters.
Recording a Submaster
For more information about submasters, see
Storing and Using Submasters, page 97
.
Step 1:
Set the channel levels that you want in your look using the channel faders and/or
keypad.
Step 2:
Switch the Fader Position Switch to Submaster mode.
Step 3:
Press [Record] then the bump button of the submaster you wish to record. This
action will terminate the command line so there is no need to hit [Enter]. You can also
record a submaster using the following syntax, [Record] [Sub] [#] [Enter], in case
you don’t want to jump to submaster mode on the faders.
Step 4:
You can either leave that look up and build upon it or use [Sneak] [Enter] to fade out
the manual levels.
If you would like to record looks to be able to play them back using Element’s [Go] button, please
see
.
N o t e :
If you have an Element 60 console, the third bank of faders are always in
submaster mode.
